Best Motor For My Ek
alright ill make it alot easier than most people for you, my ek is a daily driver so im looking towards b-series, i want to keep PS but the AC can go! after the swap my intentions would be to turbo it, any suggestion, price wise im leanining towards a jdm b16a 2nd gen, however i might be able to get a gsr with high km's for pretty cheap, any one got any ideas?

b18
I would suggest the b18 from an LS Integra. This is best if you're planning on turbo-ing it. You don't want to use an engine that has Vtec if you're going to use turbo. you want a low compression engine like the LS with larger displacement. Thats my opinion.
